Male Condoms Advantages and Disadvantages

Male condoms offer reliable, non-permanent protection against pregnancy, making them ideal for men who may later want children. They are highly portable, easy to use and obtain, and available without a prescription. Male condoms are also the most effective contraceptive way for preventing infection from sexually transmitted diseases and HIV.

Condoms have best effectiveness in preventing unwanted pregnancy and sexually transmitted disease if used correctly.

Disadvantages of Male Condoms:

Traditional male condoms are made of latex, which may cause allergic reactions in some people. Latex-free condoms, such as those made from animal skin or polyurethane plastic, are not widely available and are generally more expensive than latex condoms. Moreover, lambskin condoms do not protect against HIV or other STDs.

Users of male condoms report decreased sensation during sex and many men experience difficulty finding condoms that fit comfortably. Improper fit is a significant concern with male condoms, as it increases the risk of the condom breaking or slipping off during sexual intercourse.

Male condoms have a short shelf life and begin to break down and weaken with time, making them less effective and increasing the risk of pregnancy. Latex condoms are also sensitive to heat and may weaken when stored above room temperature or in direct sunlight.

Latex condoms should not be used with oil-based lubricants, such as petroleum jelly or mineral oil, or in conjunction with female condoms.
